Tom and Desai are brought together by circumstance, friendship, and understanding of what each other really need from the other. A monster threatens their happiness, but they rise above to reach the pinnacle they both want and need. True love always...
The next holiday Thomas and Desai shared was St. Patrick's Day, they were at a fundraiser for one of the local charities that Desai helped fund. Thomas was having a great time dancing with Desai and some of the other ladies and was becoming a bit more than tipsy. No thanks to the Everclear 190 proof that had been dyed green and made into cocktails for the event.

"Desai, can you sing a couple of songs?" Alexandria, one of the ladies that helped get the event going, asked.
"Sure, Alex.
Tom stopped in his tracks as Desai began singing Sex is on Fire and playing the lead guitar. She looked so out of place in that evening dress playing an electric guitar, he got hard just watching her.
Then she began Use Somebody and she was staring straight at him. Then she moved to the piano and began 1000000 Million then Faded.
How could she be that talented? He wondered as he grabbed another drink, swearing to himself that he would keep Loki under wraps. He wouldn't hurt her but dammnit Loki wanted some time with Desai.
Desai smiled as she swayed and sang, Downtown Train. Then the band started Crazy Little Thing Called Love and she went a little crazy with her moves on the guitar. Once the song was over, Thomas was standing by the steps and as she stepped down, he said in a commanding voice, "It's time we go home."
Desai had seen that look but it had never been directed at her. She smiled and nodded thinking, perhaps he's right, but not for the reason he's thinking. Thomas was drunk. He was now beyond tipsy, jingled, or buzzed. He was flat out drunk but she would never accuse him of that.

"You're jingled!" she laughed as she twirled around the living room.
"I am not drunk," Tom slurred as he tried to focus on Desai as she danced away from him.
"I did not say you were drunk! I said you were jingled! There's a difference," she grinned at him as he made to grab her but she twirled her dress away from his grasp. She wanted Thomas to make love to her.
"You're drunker than I am!" he pronounced loudly as he leaped over the couch caught her around her waist and pulled her to his chest.
"I am!" she giggled. "Today should be Loki day! I'm wearing green and you're wearing green – where's Loki?"
Thomas lightly gripped her chin and Desai smiled up at him, "I want you to make love to me like Loki would," she said boldly as she met his eyes.
"Oh, pet, I have wanted to do that very thing," he caressed her face, slowly, seductively, he ran a finger across her silky flesh. He lowered his voice until it was Loki asking, "Now answer my question, my pet, would you come up to my room and spend the night with me?"
